Greetings!
Welcome to LifeWork Letter!
Where in time do you focus your attention? Is it in the
past, the present, or the future? Some people linger a
long time in memories of the past. Some focus mostly
on fantasies about the future. Relatively few people
keep their attention
primarily in the Now, living life moment by moment.
Our theme for this month is Living in the Now. Many
teachers write about this, including Eckhart Tolle,
author of The Power of Now, and Ram
Dass,the author of our theme quote and a book by that
name.
Recently, I have posted several articles in my blog that
relate to this topic. Three of the articles below are
linked to my
blog, Life Coaching - Designing Your Life.
Feel free to visit and share your thoughts, ideas, and
responses.
Yours in the Now,
Connie

Be Here Now.

There is no better way I can think of to begin our
exploration of the power of living in the now than to
take 3 minutes to experience the online meditation Right Now, presented by The Daily
Motivator. Clicking on the link below will bring you
there.
Please come back and read our other offerings after
you have experienced life Right Now. Enjoy!

| Goal-Free Living: A Book Review and More |
|
|
Goal-Free Living - what does that
mean? Does it mean that we abandon all goals and
just float through life like a leaf on a river, going
wherever the current takes us?
This is the question I asked my colleague, Steve
Shapiro, about a year ago upon the publication of his
book, Goal-Free Living: How to Have the Life You
Want NOW! (Stephen M. Shapiro, John Wiley &
Sons, 2006).

| Plan to Be Surprised |
|
|
Last evening I saw a delightful movie - the newly
released Dan in Real Life. Dan Burns (superbly
played by Steve Carell) is a widower and the father of
three girls, ages 8 to 17. He is also the writer of
a "Dear Dan" - type newspaper column in which he
dispenses advice on relationships and family life -
advice he doesn't always heed himself. I'll forgo
discussing the storyline so that you might have the
pleasure of seeing it unfold for yourself. But this, I'll
share. In this movie, there are some wonderful one-
liners, and one that stood out for me was the very last
line of the movie: Plan to be surprised.

| Don't Wait. Carpe Diem! |
|
|
Carpe Diem. Latin for "seize the day".
This is written especially for the procrastinators out
there (me included).
Three recent events in my life have converged like a
perfect storm to bring home to me the importance
living life full out in every moment, hitting all the high
spots, and not letting the important stuff slide.

I believe that true happiness and fulfillment comes to
us when we know who we are, when we are
comfortable and confident living in our own skin,
when we know what we want from Life, and when
we focus our best efforts on going for our dream -
whatever that may be. Whether you are an individual
or a business, I support you in this quest.
